Single one off usage by Jon Stewart referring to the Christian fundamentalist neoconservative base doesn't need its own article. It's usage in the context was specifically a reference to Senator John McCain's commencement speech at Jerry Falwell's Liberty University which was seen as a reversal of McCain's policies of not adhering to a single base in violation of his beliefs.
It's a neologism used only once and it hasn't shown any legs, besides that if it does get picked up it's impossible to actually predictnig this was the earliest origin considering the numerous names of the past that have been used in reference to the fundamentalist Christian neoconservatives. –– Lid(Talk) 13:26, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Who would know what it means without this? Crazy Base World, does not refer to just neoconservative christians. I see no grounds for removing this page, it needs to be explained to people somehow. Nerdlogic 13:36, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- You have made a strong argument in favour of deleting the article. If the lack of an article in a tertiary source such as an encyclopaedia article means that there is no documentation at all for this, then the article is original research, and forbidden by our Wikipedia:No original research policy. If you want to make an argument in favour of keeping the article, instead, please cite sources where the concept of a "crazy base world" has already been documented.

- Delete per it being original research and Wikipedia not being for things made up by Jon Stewart one day. As much as I like Stewart and Colbert, they've led to a lot of AfDs/vandalism. --Wafulz 16:38, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
